THE GUN FACTS
« on: December 07, 2008, 04:09:34 PM »
Back in the springtime I tried putting some thoughts together in response to common questions/attacks on gun ownership. I am always amazed at how smart I am. I just usually wind up realizing that someone much smarter than me already did what I doood. Oh well I guess I will never be famous....

Anyway on Tom Greshams radio show this afternoon a gentleman (Guy Smith) was on that has been doing the same as I for several years already. It is a compilation of responses that is fabulous. Well worth the downloading and reading etc. He gets a +10 for the effort and quality ! (there seem to be several versions on the web. This is the latest I could find ver 5.0).

I am amazed at how smart you are too........  ;D ;D

Seriously, though, that was a lot of good info and I am definitely forwarding it to all my friends.
"I expect perdition, I always have. I keep this building at my back, and several guns handy, in case perdition arrives in a form that's susceptible to bullets. I expect it will come in the disease form, though. I'm susceptible to diseases, and you can't shoot a damned disease." ~ Judge Roy Bean, Streets of Laredo

For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison

Thanks for posting that

I am going to be passing that around the place here as well

one thing that  I would like to personally add

some of the info used was from a report that Dr's Jeanine Baker and Samara McPhedran have done here in Australia  ( I know them both)
and they have a new report out soon   

I was going to post them up here soon to help people with some more facts and figures that they can use for letter writing and info about what has happened here

I have found that it helps to include info like that
Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can praise them, disagree with them, quote them, disbelieve them, glorify or vilify them. The only thing you can’t do is ignore them

Great resource!  I keep the latest version on my desktop,
Firearms stand next in importance to the Constitution itself. They are the American people's liberty teeth and keystone under independence. The very atmosphere of firearms everywhere restrains evil interference. - George Washington

I've been scanning through Gun facts and found some interesting quotes. We expect pro gun comments from Thomas Jefferson or Ronald Reagan , but how about these
:MAHATMA GANDHI, PEACEFUL REVOLUTIONARY
 “Among the many misdeeds of the British rule in India, history will look upon the Act depriving a whole nation of arms, as the blackest."
HUBERT HUMPHREY, FORMER U.S. SENATOR AND VICE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES
 "Certainly one of the chief guarantees of freedom under any government, no matter how popular and respected, is the right of citizens to keep and bear arms.... The right of citizens to bear arms is just one guarantee against arbitrary government, one more safeguard against tyranny..
WALTER MONDALE, FORMER VICE PRESIDENT AND U.S. AMBASSADOR TO JAPAN
"Gun bans don't disarm criminals, gun bans attract them."

As an aside, Guy Smith reminded folks that as a PDF file you can store and display it on a lot of other smart devices these days. PDA's, cell phones (like MB's iPhone) all allow display of PDFs. So it can be a "don't leave home without it" thing too.
